Description
 
True 'teas' are made from the dried leaves of the Camellia sinensis, the tea plant, which was first cultivated in China and found growing wild in India. Chinese monks and European traders introduced it to Japan, Sri Lanka and other countries. Today there are more than 3000 varieties of tea, each having its own distinct character and named for the district in which it is grown. From the high elevation estates of Darjeeling in the foothills of the Himalaya, to far northwestern Kashmir and the tropical tea gardens of Nilgiri in the south, to Assam the birthplace of Indian tea - our collection provides a wonderful tea drinking experience from this most exotic of lands.

Darjeeling Lies In The Foothills Of The Himalaya, With Views Toward The Great Peaks Of Nepal And Bhutan. It Served As A Summer Resort To The British Raj, And A Gateway To Tibet For Traders And Adventurers. The Unique Character Of Its Tea And The Limited Production Of Its High-Elevation Estates Make Darjeeling Tea Among The Rarest And Most Prestigious Of Teas.
Darjeeling Green Tea The Growing Season Is Short In The Foothills Of The Himalaya. The Precious Flavor Of High-Elevation Tea Leaves Is Preserved In Darjeeling Green Tea. With Only Light Processing, It Produces A Cup Lighter In Color And Flavor Than Darjeeling Black Tea, But Still Carrying The Characteristic Darjeeling Hint Of Muscat.
The Discovery Of Tea In India For Centuries Tea Grew Wild And Undiscovered In India, Protected By Dense Foliage And Hte Torrential Monsoon Rains.
In 1834 The Governor General's Tea Committee Asked Officers Of The British Raj To Report On Regions Of India Where Chinese Tea Might Be Transplanted, Much To Their Surprise, The British Found Wild Tea Plants Flourishing In Assam. In The Jungles Above The Sacred Brahmaputra River And On The Great Flood Plain Along Its Banks.
The First Commercial Lot Of Tea Ever Produced Outside Of China - Eight Chests In All - Came From Assam In 1839. Today, India Has Surpassed China As The Greatest Tea Producer In The World, With Gardens In The Broad Valley Of The Brahmaputra The Lush Mountains Of South India, And The Rugged Foothills Of The Himalaya.
